DETECTIVES: Investigating the Fairy Meadow cold case

3 year old Cheryl Grimmer disappeared without a trace from Fairy Meadow beach in 1970. This story has rocked Australia to its core and is covered by BBC's Fairy Meadow Podcast. In this special episode of Detectives, understand how Frank Sanvitale and Damian Loone, the two investigators, dedicated themselves to working the Grimmer case. They found a confession in 2016, but the suspect known as 'Mercury' walked free because the confession was deemed inadmissible. They talk about the lingering affects of watching someone you truly believe is guilty slip through the cracks because of loopholes and poor police processes.  If you would like to keep up to date on more information on this case, Cheryl’s family have created the following Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/justiceforcherylgrimmer?mibextid=LQQJ4d Search BBC's Fairy Meadow podcast on the LiSTNR app to hear the full story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
